Roots, War, and Healing Community
Go deeper. Research smarter. Write the stories that matter. Heal.
Many of my students have asked for even more depth than I already provide in my small group coaching classes. Now they have it. A new community where we can explore the records, brick walls, questions, writing, and healing in new and more expansive ways.
The Roots, War, and Healing Community is a monthly subscription community for genealogists, family historians, military researchers, writers, professionals, and ancestral healers who want to go deeper into the records.
Inside the community, you’ll get:
-
Two live meetings every month focused on specific military records, research strategies, techniques, writing, war trauma, family patterns, and related topics. These are recorded and available within the community.
-
Deeper military research tips that go beyond the basics and help you uncover new sources and clues.
-
Exclusive PDFs, guides, worksheets, and research resources you can use in your own projects.
-
Brick-wall help when your research seems to have reached a dead end.
-
A place to ask questions, share discoveries, and learn from others who are researching military service and family history and doing their own inner healing work.
-
Networking and community with people who understand that military research is about more than names, dates, and records—it’s about people, experiences, families, and the stories left behind.
You don’t have to research alone. Bring your questions, your difficult research problems, your documents, and the stories you’re trying to uncover. Together, we’ll dig deeper into the records, connect the pieces, and uncover the stories hidden within your family’s past. Join Roots, War, and Healing and take your military research to the next level.
Access to all videos, posts, and materials is available as long as you are a subscriber.

More than 10 years ago, I developed a 2-part military research strategy that makes it possible to discover the story of any veteran from WWI through Vietnam — even if the records burned. This grew out of a journey I began nearly 30 years ago, guided by my military ancestors. What started as genealogy quickly expanded into a full military research, writing, and speaking business shared through the WWII Research & Writing Center and later, here at the Ancestral Souls Wisdom School.
My work is rooted in both fact and spirit. I’ve walked battlefields, stood at graves, and listened to the echoes of soldiers and families whose stories still long to be told. Living between Chicago and the Netherlands, I absorbed history, culture, and the weight of inherited war trauma. My own path through PTSD and ancestral healing deepened my ability to see repeating patterns, connect dots across generations, and help others uncover truths hidden beneath silence and loss.
At the Ancestral Souls Wisdom School and WWII Research & Writing Center, I bring together research and soul work, helping you not only recover your family’s military history but also transform the patterns and pain it left behind. This is where history, healing, and story meet.
